OPERATIONS & REPRESENTATION

Your Chilean operation, standing in six weeks

A junior listed in Toronto or Sydney does not need an office in Santiago. It needs someone who answers for it before the mining regulator, the environmental authority and the community, and who flags a deadline before it passes.

The problem

Ley 21.420 replaced Chile's flat mining patente with an escalating one: one tenth of a UTM per hectare if you can show work, rising by tenure bracket to 12 UTM per hectare if you cannot. That is a factor of 120.

You avoid the escalation by proving actual mine works, filing in the environmental system, or maintaining an active procedure under the mine safety regulation. All three are decisions that have to be made months before the March payment date.

For a foreign holder with twenty undrilled concessions, this stopped being an administrative line item and became a portfolio decision.
